INTRO TO ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
  1. Endocrine glands and hormones they release influence every cell in the body
    1. Regulates mood, growth, tissue function, metabolism, reproductive system
      1. Made up of DUCTLESS GLANDS and release HORMONES
    2. HORMONES - chemicals that act as messengers
      1. Produced in endocrine glands
        1. Sent through the bloodstream to an organ or gland
      2. PITUITARY GLAND
        1. Situated in STELLA TURCIA of SPHENOID
          1. MASTER GLAND
            1. ANT,MIDDLE,POST LOBES
              1. Regulates act of endo glands and work with hypothalamus
                1. ANTERIOR LOBE regulates-thyroid, adrenals, reproductive
            2. Produces GH - stimulates growth of bone and tissues
              1. Produces PROLACTIN - Milk production
                1. Produces THYROTROPIN - stimulates thyroid to release hormones
                  1. Produces CORTICOTROPIN - stimulates adrenal gland
              2. Secretes ENDORPHINS - reduces pain
                1. Pituitary controls OVULATUION
                2. POSTERIOR LOBE
                  1. Releases ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE
                    1. controls water balance
                      1. OXYTOCIN - contraction of uterus
                3. THYROID GLAND
                  1. Situated in the neck, close to Larynx and Trachea
                    1. Produce THYROXINE and TRIIODOTHYRONINE
                      1. in the presence of CALCITONIN and IODINE
                    2. butterfly shape, on each side of T CARTILAGE
                      1. These hormones control the rate which cells burn fuel from food
                        1. Play key role in bone growth, brain and nervous system
                          1. The release of Thyroid hormones is controlled by THYROTROPIN
                      2. PARATYHROID GLANDS
                        1. Attached to Thyroid - 4 tiny glands, lying on posterior
                          1. Release PARATHYROID HORMONE
                            1. Regulates level of CALCIUM in blood with hormone CALCITONIN
                      3. ADRENAL (SUPRARENAL) GLANDS
                        1. Situated above Kidneys
                          1. Made up of an outer part - ADRENAL CORTEX
                            1. An inner part - ADRENAL MEDULLA
                          2. ADRENAL CORTEX
                            1. Produces hormone - CORTICOSTEROIDS
                              1. Regulate SALT and WATER BALANCE
                                1. IMMUNE SYSTEM, STRESS, SEXUAL DEVELOPMENT
                            2. ADRENAL MEDULLA
                              1. Produces CATECHOLAMINES
                                1. such as EPINEPHRINE (ADRENALINE)
                                  1. Increases BP and HEART RATE in times of stress
                            3. PANCREAS - Produces INSULIN and GLUCAGON
                              1. Maintain a healthy level of GLUCOSE/SUGAR in the blood
                              2. ISLETS OF LANGERHANS
